A new horror-comedy that lovingly spoofs the eerie Roger Corman films of the early 60s, such as THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER and THE HAUNTED PALACE. [More]

Reviews for Elvira's Haunted Hills
The campy results make Mel Brooks' Borscht Belt schtick look sophisticated.
A sloppy slapstick throwback to long gone bottom-of-the-bill fare like The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.
"Plague. Schmague. I have a show to do in Paris." If that makes you chuckle, Elvira is for you.
While Peterson and her ageless alter ego keep an ironic detachment from the melodramatics, there’s no irony in the end-title dedication to Price -- it obviously comes straight from the heart.
This horror-comedy doesn't go for the usual obvious laughs at the expense of cheap-looking monsters -- unless you count Elvira's hooters.
